Figure 46: Entering New Bandwidth Values
Note: Enhanced transmission service (ETS) only specifies the division of bandwidth
between FCoE and non-FCoE traffic. It does not specify the bandwidth allocated to
the NIC or iSCSI partitions. When the switch sets ETS values, the ETS bandwidth
parameters take precedence. The FCoE partition is allocated the bandwidth specified
for FCoE in the ETS parameters. The non-FCoE bandwidth is divided between the
NIC and iSCSI partitions in the proportion specified by the NPAR management UI. In
other words, when ETS is in effect, the NIC and iSCSI bandwidth values specified by
the NPAR management UI are no longer a percentage of the total bandwidth. Instead,
they are a percentage of the non-FCoE bandwidth.
4. If desired, select the Make settings permanent check box to retain the new settings.
Note: If you do not select this option, the bandwidth values will revert to the default settings
after you reboot the host server.
5. Click OK to save your changes.
